lol democrap? You do realize that when i said 'republicrat' i was grouping both parties together, right? Both support the same platform and both propagate the same central bank owned oligarchical, corporate lobbied monopolies on law, military and finance. Please re-think you’re standing on how our happiness is contingent on national security.. You do realize the only reason that we are still stuck using oil is because of our military industrial complex's lobbying power? Research how the CIA and the private sector operate in the 3rd world.. at this point national security is irrelivent. Everything has been monopolized.
Not sure who the big threat is where we actually need this humongous fucking military either. China? They just bought their first aircraft carrier... from Ukraine.
Obama is a great guy. The problem is that people think that the president is supposed to solve all our problems single-handedly while also not doing anything that pisses anyone off. Being president of this country is the most difficult job in the world and Obama is doing an exceptional job. If any other president had passed healthcare reform, passed financial reform, desegregated the military, ended two wars, killed Osama bin Laden, signed a nuclear disarmament treaty with Russia, and saved the American auto industry, we would have called them a pretty fucking good guy. Of course though if you are told that he is doing a bad job, what else could anyone possibly think? After all, we are only sheep, not human beings capable of critical thinking.
NDAA, drone strikes and continuing to let the federal reserve and international banks dictate U.S. economic policy is far from being a great guy.
excellent post. I quite agree & even as a Brit I'm backing him as he's better for the world.. PLUS I was looking for something worth celebrating my 100th post and BA is the man.
LOL... I see your point.. Well, no worries, I certainly won't be bringing it up again... Gotta keep it in the same category as ex-wives, old girlfriends and religion... Keep a lid on it, and just sit and stew... :afro:
I'm just curious why you think he's better for the world. I certainly tend to favor the sitting president over the opposition but I'd like to know a Brits take on it.
Obama supports this: If you are not familiar you should probably research what TPP is before you decide whether or not you "like" or approve of Obama. TPP stands for Trans-Pacific Partnership. By the way, this is not just an issue for Americans, it is a global issue.

Democrat presidents are generally more open to world issues wheras Republican seem to be US interests first. Now I can see why an American would say "of course" but from the outside I just feel Obama is better for world peace and less likely to invade Syria or Iran. We all know war creates jobs and it's been used before to bolster votes - all against the enemy.. I also see Obama as more caring and compassionate, he's not all big business but looks out for the regular folks too..

however.. globalisation has failed... we all need to support our own economies, local producers and stop wasting money on transportation - not great for the planet.. this all boils down to the shareholders demanding profits and cost-cutting.. they'd rather see an extra buck or two than have to think about job losses..
Outsourcing, the next big wave and revolution. While most industries are suffering and tightening their belts, the outsourcing industry (those that provide outsourced workers) have actually seen a 300% increase in their profits and revenues. It was never really popular before, but the current economic climate has forced the hand, and outsourcing is here to stay and will only become the norm sooner or later. All the drivethru's, customer support, banking, hell possibly even health care, will soon be outsourced. How can healthcar be outsourced? Have robots controlled by people overseas. I don't know if I'm being facetious with that last comment or not.... :afro:
